Know a little about them: nothing to do with their green credentials, rather the fact that they owned Wightlink and the Isle of Man Steam Packet Co, and still own Condor Ferries - which meant that they had some 400,000 island-dwelling Britons over a barrel.<br /><br />People in Guernsey are still asking how it was that the Macquarie-owned Condor stiffed their government for an eight-figure sum for a ferry that had been sitting mothballed for four years in a yard in the Philippines, and which has been plagued by one problem after another. Could it be that the builders might have been owned by another part of the Macquarie empire? They deny it, but who knows?
